Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To test the impact of the dependent coverage expansion (DCE) on insurance disparities across race/ethnic groups. DATA SOURCES/STUDY
SETTING: Survey data from the National Survey of Drug Use and Health (NSDUH). STUDY
DESIGN: Triple-difference (DDD) models were applied to repeated cross-sectional surveys of the U.S. adult population. DATA COLLECTION/EXTRACTION
METHODS: Data from 6 years (2008-2013) of the NSDUH were combined. PRINCIPAL
FINDINGS: Following the DCE, the relative odds of insurance increased 1.5 times (95 percent CI 1.1, 1.9) among whites compared to blacks and 1.4 times (95 percent CI 1.1, 1.8) among whites compared to Hispanics.
CONCLUSIONS: Health reform efforts, such as the DCE, can have negative effects on race/ethnic disparities, despite positive impacts in the general population. © Health Research and Educational Trust.
